Folder is a thing contrived for (I guess) user friendliness though in this case its maybe dumbing it down for less advanced users.Just to clarify, Im looking for text within the file, not in the file name.To exclude files with certain patterns of names you would use find in a more advanced way.
The saving in execution time is especially big if is slow to start like Python or Ruby scripts. For example, this will exclude the dirs dir1, dir2 and all of them matching.dst.

Grep prints errors like, Function not implemented, Invalid Argument, Resource unavailable, etc. Please see Fabios great revision for my previous comments to make sense. The output results are very informative and colourful and very helpfull. Cheers. Better try them, provided theyre available on your platform, of course. Even besides recursive grep find doesnt directly search the inside of files for text. And maybe those additional tools are useful to some but old timers and those whoa are well accustomed to e.g. I certainly wont).
